Multiple Church or Fellowship Memberships

“And Jesus said unto him, Forbid him not; for he that is not against us is for us.” Luke 9:50

Every disciple or minister of the Christian Fellowship of Eternal Sovereignty is encouraged to be a member in good standing of another denomination of his own subjective choice. We believe that dual membership should cause no conflict. The Apostle Paul in I Corintians, chapter 12, spoke of the whole body of Christ being diverse and having different duties. The First Christian Fellowship of Eternal Sovereignty was formed to be a specific part of His body. Paul also says in I Cor. 12:5 that, “...there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.” And in 12:21 that the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no need of thee. Paul continues in 12:28 to say that people who have the spiritual gift of “governments” are a part of the body of Christ. Our Nation needs the spiritual “words of knowledge” given by the sword of God and defended by God’s shield—Faith in Christ—if we are ever to be free of “the Beast” that secretly runs our government.

We submit for your consideration the following predicates of our belief. In the words of George Washington, “...The name of American, which belongs to you in your national capacity must always exalt the just pride of patriotism, more than any appellation derived from local discriminations. With slight shades of difference, you have the same religion, manners, habits and political principles ...”

The First Christian Fellowship of Eternal Sovereignty is organized to enhance the ability of every Christian to fulfill his responsibility to “proclaim liberty throughout the land.”

Christ taught (Matthew 7:20) “Wherefore by their fruits ye know them.” He also declared in John 10:16, “And other sheep I have which are not of this fold: ...and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold and one shepherd.” The last portion of that scripture regarding one fold certainly has not been accomplished yet by any Christian sect on earth and thus seems to suggest that it would behoove us all to judge each other with charity towards all.
